AMF is hiring! IT Developer


This position is now closed. Please see our Vacancies page for any current opportunities.

At this key point in AMF’s growth we are now seeking exceptional candidates for the role of IT Developer.

Reporting to AMF’s Head of Technology, the IT Developer will work on several existing projects, and be required to develop their own projects, either standalone or integrated with the current systems. They should have a keen interest in leveraging technology to help improve accountability, transparency and accuracy of data collection, particularly in demanding African environments. They would have to be proficient in a number of different skill sets each of which would normally, in a larger team, be covered by individual specialists.

The current five members of the AMF team are based in their home offices, and it would be ideal if the new IT Developer is able to do the same.

The successful candidate is likely to be UK-based.

AMF is hiring! Operations Manager


This position is now closed. Please see our Vacancies page for any current opportunities.

At this key point in AMF’s growth we are now seeking exceptional candidates for the role of Operations Manager.

Reporting to AMF’s Chief Executive, and working closely with the Executive Chairman, Head of Technology and Programme Director, the successful candidate will be open, confident and collegiate, enjoying work in a small, highly impactful team.

The Operations Manager will have exceptional organisational and analytical skills, together with a bias for identifying and solving issues. They will be highly professional with a commitment to high quality services and standards. They will have strong attention to detail, excellent excel capability, excellent time management, appreciate the importance of visual presentation of material for clarity and a flexible attitude towards work. They will be comfortable dealing with and learning about financial matters, and be willing to examine budgets in detail.

We anticipate that the level of responsibility for carrying out independent tasks will increase significantly as the person grows to understand the AMF organisation and its priorities and values.

Prior experience in international development is not necessary. For the right candidate AMF would be willing for them to have flexible working arrangements.

The current five members of the AMF team are based in their home offices, and it would be ideal if the new Operations Manager is able to do the same.

The successful candidate is likely to be UK-based.

Long-term volunteer sought to help AMF with donations administration


We are seeking an individual who would be willing to spend 6 to 10 hrs a week on a long-term basis (ideally at least a year) taking responsibility for entering offline donation information into AMF’s donation system.

The work involves entering and cutting and pasting information relating to donations and donors from bank statements and other reports into AMF’s donation system.

This is a role that can be performed from your own home/office.

It is a crucial task that allows AMF to have real-time information on donations and finances as well as facilitating communication with all donors for whom we have contact information to allow them to track exactly where the nets they fund are distributed. It requires an individual with an unusual ability to focus on detail and work very accurately to avoid errors.

We have two individuals (one a full-time member of staff and one a volunteer who has been leading this work over the last two years) who have the ability to carry out this work and they can step in when required so this is a volunteer opportunity where there is back-up. We are seeking a volunteer to take over this work as there is other work we wish to develop with the existing volunteer.

See a detailed description of the role.

If you would like to speak with us about becoming part of the AMF team and assisting with this important activity, please email .
